"I expect him to be able to transfer the style of play he's showing at Bayern to our team. He's very versatile. He should play without any inhibitions. He should now seize the opportunity to establish himself with the U-21 national team as well. He's making the most of his chances at Bayern, playing with freedom, and has scored in both the Bundesliga and the Champions League,"
"It is not common to see a 17-year-old get appearances with the U-21 squad, let alone starting minutes, but Karl has justified every opportunity being thrown his way. Is it too much to soon though? Some critics are afraid to rush Karl's development, but teenagers playing on the global stage is becoming more and more frequent in recent years. While there is always a risk, Karl has plenty to offer Bayern Munich and Antonio Di Salvo's side."
Lennart Karl has earned notable minutes for Bayern and the Germany U-21s at just 17, demonstrating versatility, freedom in play, and goals in both the Bundesliga and Champions League. Antonio Di Salvo expects Karl to transfer his Bayern style to the U-21 side and to seize the chance to establish himself. Early U-21 appearances are rare, but Karl has justified those opportunities despite concerns about rushing development. Proper guidance from Vincent Kompany, Bayern figures, and family could help Karl develop on and off the pitch. Karl could be a contender for Young Player recognition at the World Cup and bolster Germany toward 2026.
